Use this floating hatchery to seperate a pregnant mother from the rest of your fish. Once the babies are born, they fall through to the "nursery" where they can grow to a safe size. This unit is also great for seperating a bully from the rest of your fish, or seperating an injured fish. Great for bettas, as well! Made of sturdy plastic.

I would recommend this but not for it's intended use. When I had sick fish I would put them in so I could take pictures of them or to get a better look at them. I would also use it to pour water into when doing water changes so it didn't mess up the sand at the bottom. Other than that it's pretty useless. There is a mesh breeder net that is bigger and gets better water flow if you really want to use one of these.

It's a good fry trap for live bearers but it's on the smaller size and can stress larger fish like platties and mollies. It does crack easily, although I've never had the water flow issues that other have had.
